How to transition a property from Sole Proprietor to LLC?

[Nick Zasowski]

Hi All, 

I read a bunch of different forum posts on the different approaches, but was curious if anyone had the tactical (step by step) process for this question. 

1. What is the step-by-step process to transition an existing triplex from being owned personally into an LLC?

2. Moving forward, how do I set myself up so that I do not need to do this moving forward, but can buy every future property under an LLC?

- Do I need to/should I work with an attorney and/or CPA?

I feel like I'm making this harder than it needs to be, so I was curious if any one had a K.I.S.S. (Keep it simple stupid) process for how they work through question 1 and question 2 step by step?

Thank you in advance for anyone willing to share how they approach these instances.
